Written by Kate McDonald on 21 November 2019.

Members of the Health Informatics Society of Australia (HISA) and the Australasian College of Health Informatics (ACHI) will vote in December on a proposal to merge to two organisations and form a new peak group for digital health and health informatics, to be named the Australasian Institute of Digital Health.

HISA and ACHI have been in discussions for several years about merging and began a consultation round in May to gauge member interest.
